Technical Analysis
ETH/USD plunged in yesterday’s trading session and ignored another downside obstacle. Price registered humble gains today, but you should know that the perspective remains bearish on the short term. The crypto market has started to drop after the minor upside movement and could continue this downside movement because we don’t have any reversal signs.
The rate could increase a little in the short term and could test and retest the broken levels before it will drop further.
You can see that the price has retested the sliding parallel line (SL) of the descending pitchfork. It has failed to make a breakout above the confluence area formed between the 50% line with the SL. The price dropped below the first warning line (WL1) of the descending pitchfork and below the lower median line (LML) of the ascending pitchfork signaling a further drop.
ETH/USD could come back to test and retest the broken lines. So, we’ll have a great selling opportunity if the price will stay below the lines mentioned.
The current drop is natural and it was expected after the failure to reach the median line (ML). Right now only a false breakdown below the lower median line (lml) of the ascending pitchfork could invalidate a further drop, but is hard to believe that the buyers could force the rate to increase significantly from here.
Conclusion
The perspective remains bearish on the short term as long as the ETH/USD rate stays below the sliding line (SL) of the descending pitchfork. It could drop towards the 400 psychological level because it should be attracted by the 150% lines in the upcoming period. Only a valid breakout above the SL will signal a reversal.
